View Royal’s chickens coming home to roost

Re: “Thetis Cove not available for sewage plant,” Aug. 1. The land at Thetis Cove has much to recommend it as a potential sewage site, despite what the neighbours might think.

The land at Thetis Cove has much to recommend it as a potential sewage site, despite what the neighbours might think.

View Royal council must know that the province may eventually step in to force the issue. Over the past decade, View Royal has filled in many areas with dense housing requiring sewage collection and treatment. The planners knew that the ultimate destination for sewage would be well outside View Royal’s boundaries. The town’s chickens are now returning to roost.

For example, are there any plans for the collection and treatment of sewage for the newly announced Eagle Creek project near the hospital?
